Female Dog, Pit Bull Terrier
Pit Bull Terrier / Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Mixed
Description:
Age: 10 months Size: 65 lbs Estimated breed: Pit bull/Staffordshire bull terrier Perfect home: Zara has grown up with older kids 12 and older and done well with them. She has lived with cats but enjoys the chase, so needs a cat-free home. She does well with dogs who match her playstyle, but could also live happily as your one and only! Update from my foster 11/15: Meet our current foster dog, Zara, who is a sweet and lovable well trained 10 month old puppy. She takes a little time to warm up to people but once she's comfortable with you, she will adore you. She loves to play fetch, go on walks or runs, but also loves cuddling on the couch. Zara joined us when she was only 4 weeks old with her three siblings. They were found nursing off their emaciated, chained mama living outside in rural South Carolina. Local advocates convinced the owners to surrender the puppies and their mom so they could get them the medical care they needed! Zara and her siblings came to PA to a foster home, and the other three puppies quickly found their forever homes. Unfortunately for Zara, no family ever came for her, so she remains with us 7 months past her rescue :( Zara is now 8 months old and weighs 65 lbs. She is a shy girl who can be nervous meeting new people, but she warms up quickly with a gentle and slow approach and yummy treats. She actually prefers meeting kids! She’s grown up with older kids in her foster home and loves to cuddle and play with them. Zara has grown up with other dogs and does well with evenly matched playmates. She would do well with a dog who can match her playstyle, but would also be happy as your one and only! Zara received three weeks of professional training back when she was 4 months old and is an expert with basic obedience! She’s super attuned to her handler and will check in regularly on walks for guidance. Zara has already waited far too long for a family of her own. She has outgrown her puppy foster home and while her foster family loves her dearly, it’s clear that Zara needs a home of her own, where she doesn’t need to share her space with so many other dogs.
